CHAPTER 117 | PPPP
A little surprised by Mira who looks good this morning, blackened and large eye bags have disappeared, even though I know that she can not sleep all night. Mira laughed and smiled as if her mood was fine. This kid is really tough and grown up.
“Mama, dad. Today I will be home late, there is something I have to do”, said Mira asked permission from me and Sam.
“Figure you are good. Call mama or papa if something happens”, my message to Mira when she wants to leave to hear the sound of Raka's car horn has sounded.
Raka and Mira's relationship is eventually known by their parents but each relationship must have their own problems. Waving her hand, Mira walked over and got into Raka's car. Between doubt or not, Mira plays her fingers trying to dare to say something to Raka.
“Kak, today Mira will go home alone. There is something Mira has to do”, Mira told Raka who focuses on driving.
“What is it? Is it really important? I will wait for you, just calm down”, replied Raka casually responding to Mira. But Mira shook her head, she did not tell the truth because she was afraid that Raka would be upset and disappointed in her.
“No need, I can go home by myself kak”, said Mira trying to answer calmly. Raka looked towards Mira while frowning, she looked at Mira suspiciously.
“You're not hiding things from me, are you? Since yesterday you can't be contacted and I feel like you're avoiding me. What was? Tell me honestly”, said Raka as if she had read Mira's mind. But again Mira dodged, he did not want Raka to know, he did not want to make Raka disappointed because Mira thought that this was his own problem. Although Raka still feels suspicious of Mira but she tries to believe the words of her lover, she threw away the suspicion in her heart.
“Alright, if anything happens contact me immediately. Be careful”, said Raka then kissed Mira's forehead. Raka waited until Mira entered the school and was not seen again but, when she was about to step on the gas, Arka opened the door of Raka's car and went inside.
“Go ahead, there is something I want to tell you”, Arka said just like that after he entered Raka's car arrived.
“What did you say? Come out, correct school”, said Raka raised her tone.
“Didn't you suspect why Mira was acting strangely? I'll say it, before it's fast run his car”, reply Arka by continuing to look forward without looking at Raka when he was talking. Hearing Arka's words, Raka sets off the gas and runs her car, heading for Arka's chosen spot. Arka quickly took off her school uniform and replaced it with a regular t-shirt.
“Cih, this is the last time I obey your silly orders”, said Raka was annoyed because he obeyed the word Arka so easily. But there is no other choice, Raka is eager to find out what is going on with her lover Mira.
A bell rang right above their heads, Raka and Arka sat on a bench by the window while waiting for their order to come. At that moment, Arka was silent for a moment without saying anything while Raka sat down and folded her hands on the table waiting for Arka to speak.
“For the last time, can I get close to Mira?”. The first Arka speech had managed to raise Raka's anger, but Arka looked at Raka with a smile.
“For the last time, I want to make sweet memories together with Mira, the girl I once loved even today. Believe me this will not take long”, said Arka to Raka while lowering her head. Raka sees a strange thing in Arka until she reveals her emotions, she realizes something has happened to Arka but she does not know what it is.
“Say clearly you mean”, Raka said briefly. Now he folded his hands and leaned against the chair he was sitting in.
“I am sick, an incurable disease. My age is very soon, so now I come to you and beg you, let me make memories with Mira for the last time. I won't take it away from you because Mira is completely yours. But please, can Mira accompany me the rest of my time? I appreciate you as Mira's lover right now therefore I came to you, saying all this” said Arka with glassy eyes holding back her tears.
Raka was speechless looking at Arka, in her view Arka looked very serious about this matter. His heart was like being knocked when Arka expressed her plea, it was very noticeable that he was suffering greatly. Never did he think that Arka would go through a road like this, even though Raka did not like it because she was his ex-lover, however, her humanity cannot leave her alone even though her heart refuses to allow Arka to make memories with Mira.
“I promise it won't be long, three months from now, just three months before I leave. Let me have a last memory with Mira, to accompany me in the grave”. Arka's words further tormented Raka, his heart could not bear if he had to refuse. From the beginning he decides to believe in Mira, if Mira changes because of this, then he must let it go even for a while.
Raka turned his face away from seeing Arka's face, a young man like Arka who had to go through this kind of hardship and had to fight with death, Raka is like struggling with herself even though she knows what decisions she has to make.
“Alright, since this is your last chance then I'll allow it. But remember, Mira is Mine, do not dare you think to take it back when I give you a chance” said Raka who finally granted Arka's request. His heart was quite sick when he finally allowed Arka to return close to Mira but on the other hand he also could not bear to not grant his wish at the end of his life.
“So this is what made you change a little Mira? Why didn't I hear it from you? It feels really painful”, Raka murmured in her heart.
